There is this benefit of having a protocol that anyone can come in and build their own front end.- topocount
Build from this in July

A Frame or client that reads Snapchain directly, or a gasless-signer onboarding flow that makes keys painless for new users.

topocount from Neynar goes under the hood of Snapchain, the storage and signing layer behind Farcaster - how Snapchain signers work, OG signers vs Snapchain-native signers, how storage is structured, the move to bring more of the Farcaster client (channels, blocks) onto the protocol, and where Snapchain is headed. Built for developers who want the behind-the-hood view of Farcaster infrastructure.

Key takeaways
  • Snapchain is the open social backend of Farcaster - it accepts every cast, like, and follow and distributes them to all clients, and anyone can inspect or build on it.
  • How Snapchain signers work, and the difference between OG signers and Snapchain-native signers.
  • The plan to move more of what lives in the Farcaster client - channels, blocks - onto the protocol, so other clients can build on it.
  • topocount's path from smart-contract / EVM engineer to working on Snapchain itself in Rust at Neynar.
